It’s a good day as Chris Sale takes the mound. Aaron Brooks counters sale.
Braves Lineup
It’s June people. Time to put May to bed and start winning some games.

Already 2-0 down. Gonna walk the dog and then patronize the sponsors.
I love Chris Sale. He freed up the rest of my Saturday by spotting Oakland an insurmountable lead in the top of the first. Well done sir!
I think we should start calling Ozuna “The Offense.”
It’s not our year.
This team is so frustrating that I have turned off more games this year than during the rebuild. Just not fun or interesting to watch.
The Phillies picked up Freddy Tarnok who Oakland had DFA’d.
Have a nice evening everyone.
I miss the team that still had a chance when it gave up 3 runs.
CJ is insisting the Braves still has a chance to make it a high-scoring game. Has he been paying attention?
This isn’t the 2023 team. This team as it stands is dead in the water. Getting complete embarrassed by three straight below .500 teams that look more ready to compete than we do. Something needs to change
Something just changed!!
Nothing 10 runs won’t cure.
A real, true, by-God rally! Our boys may be the Atlanta Braves after all!
Nothing 20 runs won’t cure.
And we immediately give it right back
Not to put too fine a point on it, but Putter and Insect: could you go somewhere else? There are other Braves bars in the multiverse where your schtick would fit right in but you are ruining this one.
Oh. We bats last as Skip used to say (currently 9-10) in the 6th
Ryan: if this is out of line please remove
I second the motion.
For me, the winter’s long enough without giving up on the summer too. But I understand the frustration and I don’t mind if people vent, although it gets repetitive.
I apologize if I offended anyone. I love the Braves and get emotional about them. I have been here for 20+ years and I will no longer comment. Point taken .
OK, we lost again, that’s bad, but lets concentrate on what’s good for awhile?
Riley looks like he’s back
Ozuna is incredible
Kelenic is hitting the ball MUCH harder and eventually he will come good.
Harris and Albies had some nice ABs
This team needs some Tweeks but is really fun to watch
No Putter! Comment differently! Gripe sessions are mood killers
Yeah putter, no need to leave, this year has been tough so far, so I personally don’t mind some negativity.
I’m guilty of it too as well.
I just can’t believe how badly the offense has done so far after a historic run last year.
And it was Sale’s turn to have a bad outing, sadly, just when they have a breakout with the bats.
if those 2 guys leave, we will have almost no one left here. I dont know where everyone went, but it is freaking quiet.
We don’t need to run anybody off, that’s for sure.
The team is frustrating; hearing about how the team is frustrating is frustrating. It was a long day, but we all want the same thing.
Seconded, putter – I hope you don’t leave, but I also hope you’ll come here and comment both in good times and bad! We all need to stick together, and hopefully we can share some good vibes even when the team’s becalmed in the doldrums.
Thanks guys. I will be mindful of my negativity when frustrated. Let’s just hope we get things figured out soon.
I really thought we had a chance when we took a 9-8 lead. That was the most frustrating part. That felt like early 2021 or rebuild baseball. I think Sale deserved to get taken off the hook just like we knew Max would come around after his bad starts. We are still a great team and very likely to make the playoffs. Maybe it’s our turn to get in as a wild card and beat the Phightins in the NLCS.
Just look at the Dodgers. They’re running into some trouble too. I just can’t believe the Royals and Guardians are as good as they are. Living in the mid-Atlantic, I was kinda annoyed that the O’s scored 9 and won and we scored 9 and lost. Also, that whole series against the gNats got me where it hurts.
I’m still reading every comment but just haven’t had much to say last couple years. Last year I didn’t have much to say because his team was just so damn good (and then wasn’t at the worst possible time). This year I don’t have much to say cause I just don’t know what the hell is going on. Lol. What is this team?
This too shall pass. You need a few guys to get hot and things will start gelling. I just hope Ozuna doesn’t cool off before other guys heat up.
Putter, you’ve been here far too long. Please stick around.
Wait nobody can bitch and moan during the games anymore? What else is there to say this year? Maybe we’ll find some magic this summer. Maybe all our best players will continue to suck. Who knows. For what it costs to maintain season tickets at Truist, we have a right to bitch and moan. I’m surprised there’s no booing yet.
I’m kind of in the middle on this. Of course, people can say whatever they want. But complaining every day when a team is in a slump is pretty dumb. This team was one of the best offensive teams in history last year, objectively got better in the offseason, but they’re currently mired in a slump. I think you need to take a step back as a fan if you can’t ride the ebbs and flows of the sport. Personally, at this point, I think the sport is too damn long, and it makes me really apathetic on a day-to-day basis. But the answer to that is not to agonize over day-to-day performance.
With that said, I get that you want to turn on the ballgame on a Saturday night and watch the team play well. But we don’t have that right now. A lot of guys are hitting way below their career norms. And until that changes, maybe you just need to tune into some other TV programming if it’s making you lose your mind. 162 game seasons are (too?) long. It’s a long season.
